Guild Wars 2

I dont regret it…. had it for a while now. One thing i do regret is not able to want to try on other dagger in game. Nit that there are many cool one. But even if new one come out. I am kind of forced not to use it since i already have the “the coolest” in game.

Better question would be… what else will you use the gold for… if you end up selling it..

Thanks.

Pve… use S/P… pistol wip… is so strong plus it hit multiple time/target…For 1 shot target with one hit is probabbly backstab on DD teef.

+1 with messiah. I enjoy this type of build now a day. Sure its risky and you may loose to heavy condi class now and then. IMO, it works well in small group or if you get used to this build… use it in zerg fights… you do merd need to have good map awareness and pick your target. I havent switch to other for a while now. the 266 or 0662 is also good. All depends on your style. Try them all

26006 is alot of fun but risky… I feel that it works well in both DD and DP. DP does have a better options but if you going to play DD with this then you need to be very good at timing and map awareness. I would pick mug. Since u need some heal. And this build goes well with withdraw heal. Rememeber that you dont have condi remove. Know when to burst and or bail will make you successful. All in all. It is a good build if you are bored of SA6 and wants more challenge. Good luck.

Intersting…. maybe someone can tell me. What if people that has traits in trickery… like thrill of the crime. I know for sure that even if you dont have anything target and use steal… you will still get all your boon and tricker steal cool down. So.. in this case. It doesnt really matter if it really out of rang or bug? If you still get the full duration on steal? Thanks…

I think you are going on right path of starter. I would get rid of lifesteal on dagger. Use fire or air on it instead. Armor isnt your problem. What rune do you have and utilities… also I see your traits… and I assume you using SA
1. Recove condi. 2. Gain ini when stealth. 3. Heal in stealth ?

If so. You should be able survive pretty well. If you jave issue with CnD. Then I would start out with dagger/pistol. Its fairly simple to use.

Also. If you tell me your ideal fights as what you like to do. Im sure many good teef here can recomend a build to fit your play style. PM me in game any time. Good luck. Have fun…

Yah. All classes attacks differently. Just take time getting use to it. You will discover more tips as you level up or face enermy in pvp. Just wish I had time to try out other class.

Ok understand. I like the balance idea.. if damage increase. Right now.. I think cooldown on stealth is around 4 seconds. Ish…

When I said sell. I simply mean just to get rid of it.. recycle or what not is good as well. just gear up once you reach max lvl.

I agree with the above post here. Sum it up very well. My background in warrior is very little. I do have a 80 warrior. Just havent gear him up yet. I still find thief the most fun even with all the nerf. I guess its fun because it isnt very forgiving. It sure isnt noob friendly but im sure most of us like the challenges… consider it a high risk high reward class.
No single class can have it all…If a thief mess up your initiative… or dodge wrong time.. or no shadow step.. you are dead. Maybe a little more forgiving for other classes.

Awww. Well. Forgive me if I wasnt clear. I didnt say it is predictable all the time…I mean it can be alittle predictable at time for most.. or I should say most DP do that combo. Bp>hs then backstab.

I wouldnt go as far to say im playing wrong without seeing it. Or assuming so. Anyway.. all im saying is that its a nice weapon set with good utilitis. No doubt about that… I personally dont play that wepon set anymore. That is all.

By the way. You probably knkw or seen. Fire on crit does make a cool aoe explosions…. I do like that part. Try it out anyway.

Yah. I wouldnt waste any gold on that till you hit 80. In fact… when I was lvling… I just use any weapon I find. As long as it is similar to your current lvl. That should be good enough. You will think about gear/stats of your liking when you max lvl.

So. Just sell…dont even put anything in. Is my recomendation. But at least you know what to try at 80… Good luck.

I use bloodlust one. I mean you can now add 2 sigil in 2 hand weapons now. So I use bloodlust and fire…

Dont over look the clusterbomb. Play with it.. does good damage. And no. I dont detonate it. Just let it blow up. The trick is to manage your initiative. So dont go spamming 4. 2 4 2.. space it out woth auto attack and your group of mobs should melt quickly. You can switch to DD once thwir HP is low… if you like. Good luck.

Not sure what heal you are using. But I recomend withdraw heal for that type of play. Maybe add the 2 points in AB trait to give vigir when using healing skills. It goes well together. Good luck.

Mmmm the SB auto attack will bounce to multiple target. I guess you juat need to play around with it. Drop 4 then clusters bomb2… then auto attack. In time you will see it is ment for aoe. I put stackable sigil on SB. Which im sure most thief do the same. Reason for it being easy to aoe and tag mobs… good luck!

I played DP for a while. The weapon option is pretty kitten nice IMO. But I switch to DD and adjusted some traits. I just think DP can be a little predictable at times. But yes. Very nice weapon set for a dual. Also seen some good SD player out there as well.

Ok. So… just trying to understand. Your point is you want them to increase the dmg of backstab in general? Like I have said. IMO. Its fairly strong as is… and yes. Auto attack can get 3k easy with crit. So I do understnad that you can miss backstab… if you dont crit. It wont really show big number anyway.

Talking wvw. 7.5k is pretty good number. I hit 9k often and thats more than half HP for most classes. Thats strong single target to me.

Yep. Add me if you like. Be good to know other teef. Exchange some good tips.

If you going to aoe. I recomend using short bow. The dagger #3 skill is soso. With SB. You can start with #4 then #2 as a blast finisher.. it create weakness. Also. For DD #4 is actually pretty good to tag mobs. I would use that if needed.

IMO. Talking pve. Thief starting lvl can be challenging. As you get more traits it become easier. You can also try sword/pistol for pve. And again. Equip short bow. Hipe this help.

Agree with the above post. First. Get to 80 and get some gear. With the correct traita and crit dmg… It does hit forvery hard.. Even if you are 79… once 80. Its night and day. Probably same goes with all other class. Good luck.

Agree on the above post. IMO. To play well. You really have to have good map awareness. Sure build and gear will help you. I recomend to new thief to start out with 6 points in SA in WvW. Pick condi remove and heal while in stealth. You can put other points else were you see fit…Once you advance and are more confortable with the class then you can play around with other traits. For weapon set. At least have a off hand SB. Good luck…

Know what you can… and cant do.. pick your fight..you do habe that option with a thief.
